Any Clues?

Might be your printer driver... Go to the manufacturer's web site and look around for
an updated driver.

But it works fine in the rest of office?

It would be helpful to know more about the issue you are encountering.
Such as:

- What version of Word and what SPs are installed?
- Which "Safe Mode" are you referring to? Windows safe mode or Word
safe mode?
- What is the error message you are encountering?

Additionally, it is possible a corrupt/incorrect printer driver will
crash Word but operate fine for other applications since Word relies
more on the printer driver than other applications.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
